New Zealand Wind Grass
This highly adaptable, drought tolerant grass from NZ suits a full sun or part shaded position. Comb dead or dry leaves from the tuft in early spring to allow for new growth. A moderate self seeder, new plants are quick to establish or propagate by division in mid-spring when actively growing. Mature plants can be cut back hard every 3-4 years to rejuvenate. Roots prone to rot in poorly drained soils.
